The trip down was good. We made it about ¾’s of the way before Max decided it was time to eat. Our first stop at the giant Outdoor World / Bass Pro Shop never made it beyond the very back of the parking lot. That was ok though… We managed to time it right and missed most of the traffic heading into the city. Lakeshore Drive is a cool way to get north of town if it’s not rush hour.
It only took about 30 minutes for Amber and Tim to pick their jaws up off the floor and to stop laughing upon seeing how big Max has become. It didn’t help little Steven, at one month old, is only half Max’s size. It was definitely a study in contrast lying them side by side.
Max got to break in some of Steven’s new toys (sorry sis…), slide around on they’re very nice, very old, hardwood floors, laugh hysterically every time Shadow, their 110 lb. bloodhound would walk by and lick his face.
Amber and Tim also had the pleasure of watching him, along with there own brand new baby, while Annie and I went out to experience our long awaited plans. (Everyone was asleep when we got back, and the house wasn’t in shambles, so I think I believe them, when they say it went alright.)
The drive back Sunday was going great until about 10 miles from the Michigan border we realized the acrid stench we sporadically smelled for the last 15 miles was Max. I guess it was his way of telling us it was time for a break. Wow…
It was a great trip. Hanging out with my baby sister, her husband and new little boy. Amber and Annie had a great time swapping stories and trading hints and advice. We hope they get a chance to move back to Michigan sometime soon.
You can already tell they’re going to be great parents.
